Online coffee mornings

Recommended for the parents and families of babies and toddlers

While we can't meet up face-to-face, we're inviting families from across the UK to join us online for an informal coffee and a chat.

At our “drop in on Zoom” sessions, you’ll meet other parents of young children, take part in activities and find out valuable information. 

You’ll also get a chance to meet our family and deaf presenter volunteers and hear about their experiences of parenting too.

Upcoming online coffee mornings

New dates will be added shortly. In the meantime, why not take a look at our other online events for families.

How to join

As long as you have access to any computer, smartphone or tablet with an internet connection then you'll be able to access our online coffee mornings.

When you sign up online, you'll receive all the information you need about how to join via Zoom.

Communication support

Closed captioning and BSL interpreters will be available. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].

Meet our lovely hosts

Carla and Helen from our Family Programmes team will be on hand to answer any of your questions at our coffee mornings.
